These formulas are related to continuous one-parameter families of probability-preserving convolution structures on $C_q\\times\\mathbb R$. These convolutions on $C_q\\times\\mathbb R$ are constructed via product formulas for the spherical functions of the symmetric spaces $U(p,q)/ (U(p)\\times SU(q))$ and associated double coset convolutions on $C_q\\times\\mathbb T$ with the torus $\\mathbb T$. We shall obtain positive product formulas for a restricted parameter set only, while the associated convolutions are always norm-decreasing. Our paper is related to recent positive product formulas of R\\\"osler for three series of Heckman-Opdam hypergeometric functions of type BC as well as to classical product formulas for Jacobi functions of Koornwinder and Trimeche for rank $q=1$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-10-11T10:21:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "33C67", "43A90", "43A62", "33C80" ], "keywords": [ "heckman-opdam hypergeometric functions", "type bc", "two-parameter family", "positive product formulas", "explicit product formulas" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1310.3075V" } } }
